nklr [dsn_klr650] cooling issues
Posted: Thu Jul 05, 2007 2:35 pm
Thought I would NKLR this one as it is more philosophy than anything else.
It is very interesting to chase rabbits down the holes and we all have
different rabbits that we chase.
I'm thinking of ways to use the space shuttle tile technology on the
underside of my tank to cut-down on the boiling. May work, may not; but it
will be very interesting to see how far I get down the hole before needing
to eat the mushrooms.
So to all reading,
keep up the interesting discussion on what-ifs and post photos whenever
possible.. If nothing else, the results can be very entertaining.
